Now foods, my favorite brand of supplements, was one of the brands named in the lawsuit. Although I don't take their Cod liver oil, Salmon oil or Shark liver oil, I take other their Ultra Omega-3 supplements.

I have been known to use Nature Made fish oil, along with other brands. I take 6,000 mgs (or 6 grams if you like) a day - which my doctor says is the max you should use.

Before I worry too much about this lawsuit, I want to see the science behind it and also see just how pervasive this problem is.

Also, whenever someone says the risk is "potential," I want to know how "potential." Is it 1 in a 1,000, 1 in 10,000, etc., suffer problems from PCB contamination, which would probably be some type of cancer.

Just because a group in California files suit doesn't cause me real concern. Remember, this is the state that tried to ban barbecue grills because of "potential" harm caused by the emissions.

I also agree with Mark on this. I want to hear more, see more stats !!

Amongst other silliness/stupidity to come out of there!

It's all a sham. Politics is a big game, same as the media - and same as religion. The point is to distract & control. If we're looking at what they tell us is the "big issue", we're not looking at what they are doing. In time, there will be different causes and different minorities to pick-on. All in the name of keeping the system going, and the people distracted.
